Gambling Self Test for Teens

The Self Test for Teens was created by Dr. Durand F. Jacobs to allow young people to look inward and assess their gambling behaviors. The ten questions speak to the reasons why young people gamble, the frequency of their risk taking, emotions tied to the behaviors, and source of their disposable incomes. The number of “yes” responses are then added together and recommendations are offered to assist young people in taking the appropriate steps.
